How Do Pediatricians Implement Evidence-Based Practice?
Pediatricians implement evidence-based practice by following these steps: 1. Formulating a Clinical Question: Using the PICO (Patient, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) framework. 2. Searching for Evidence: Using medical databases and other reputable sources. 3. Appraising the Evidence: Critically assessing the validity, impact, and applicability of the findings. 4. Applying the Evidence: Integrating the evidence with clinical expertise and patient preferences. 5. Evaluating the Outcome: Assessing the effectiveness and efficiency of the intervention.
